Tangled Yoke Cardigan
At long last I’ve finished the Tangled Yoke Cardigan. It soared to the top of my list of favorite patterns to knit. Eunny Jang’s genius in the cable design made it delightful. I kept wondering, “How did she think of that?” as I went along. I just love the long stretch of ribbing on the sleeves and bottom of the sweater as well.
I thoroughly enjoy the yarn. It’s Rowan’s Felted Tweed - the DK version. I was worried that the yarn would be scratchy, but I wore the sweater with just a shell on underneath and it was fine. It’s the perfect spring sweater – light and just warm enough for cool mornings.
The color I used, Shade 141 Whisper, has been discontinued, but Rowan has come out with a bunch of other enticing colors. I can’t wait to use one of them to make another of these cardigans!
Isn’t it funny how that yarn isn’t scratchy? I made a sweater with Yorkshire Tweed and it’s just fine against my bare arms.
Your sweater is beautiful!!!
Turned out great!
Now I want one too!
I just love this cardigan, dear Audrey. Am looking up the pattern right now on Ravelry. Hope it isn’t too difficult!
You are such a wonderful knitter, Karen, you would have no problem making this sweater! I hope you’ll keep me posted if you decide to make it. I’ll want to meet the yarn and follow your progress!
